Wash it.
Wander around and make sure everything is tight.
Check tire pressure and fluid levels.
Grease the undercarriage.
Lube any squeaky hinges.

Pick one part at a time... clean, polish, or paint, and reassemble. Repeat until everything is perfect.

Believe it or not, I did this with one of my old project cars. After about 6 months of spare time, it had the cleanest and prettiest engine bay you have ever seen.
